Course Summary
This unit explores the skills and knowledge required to write an episode of an existing television series or serial. Television script writing is highly collaborative and requires writers to be able to work effectively with story editors, script editors and script producers. The ability to work to deadlines, meet the production requirements of a particular show and develop story material creatively and efficiently in a pressured environment are some of the essential skills required by successful screenwriters, and you'll practise those across the semester.
